I would just console the ones grieving by saying something like..this time will come for all of us and that is why we must enjoy the here and now...use this as a lesson to live life now and not depend on anyone else to fulfill us. You could also say something good about the persons character who died..if there is anything good to say..

Hmmm. This is a tough one for many. For me personally, it's not that hard. I've never been close to family or friend for much of my life, so even if the ties are cut by death or distance, I tend to move on as if nothing happened. Recently, however, I've come to change this tune. For the first time I am afraid of some persons close to me dying or going far away. Everything changes when certain bonds are formed.
